Standards, Certifications & Class Approval

Review the available standards and approval information relevant to the product. Actual certification, material traceability, inspection and classification requirements depend on the product type, intended application and purchasing specification.

Applicable Standards & Certification Scaffolding systems are commonly designed, tested, and supplied in accordance with EN 12810 and EN 12811. Components may also be subject to local occupational safety, load-rating, inspection, and temporary-works requirements.
Class Approval Scaffolding frames are generally not type-approved by DNV, ABS, Lloyd's Register, BV, or ClassNK as marine machinery. Shipyards may require project-specific acceptance, material certificates, load calculations, and inspection by the responsible safety or engineering authority.

Installation, Maintenance & Safety Information

Installation Notes Assemble on a firm, level, load-bearing surface using the manufacturer's instructions. Install base plates or adjustable jacks, frames, braces, platforms, guardrails, toe boards, ties, and access equipment as required. Inspect and tag the completed scaffold before use.
Maintenance Tips Inspect before each use and after relocation, impact, or severe weather. Check frames, welds, pins, braces, platforms, jacks, couplers, and guardrails for damage, corrosion, deformation, or missing parts. Remove defective components from service and store them clean and dry.
Safety Notes Use only within the manufacturer's rated load and height limits. Provide suitable foundations, bracing, ties, edge protection, and safe access. Do not alter or mix incompatible components without approval. Maintain clearance from energized equipment and follow shipyard permit, fall-protection, and inspection procedures.
